Businesses are investing in AVL tracking solutions to be able to monitor vehicle movements and locations provide the best routing options for their drivers help reduce the amount of fuel they consume and to enhance the overall efficiency of their Delivery Schedules.
 

In 2025, during the P155 training exercise in Liberec, Czech Republic, a Tactical Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) system from GINA Software was deployed to enhance coordination and safety for multiple units operating in the field. The AVL solution provided real‑time tracking of 15 vehicles and 5 operators, allowing command centres to continuously monitor their positions without manual check‑ins. This improved situational awareness and streamlined operational communication, illustrating how AVL technology supports real‑time decision‑making and operational efficiency in coordinated fleet activities.
 

The ability to improve operational efficiency, reduce idling time, and improve driver accountability are becoming major motivators for organizations operating fleets within the logistics, transportation, and specialty fleets industries to deploy AVL (Automatic Vehicle Location) Systems.
 

Both government and private industry around the globe are implementing stringent regulations regarding fleet safety, cargo monitoring, and emission compliance. Public transport fleet operators, hazardous cargo fleet operators, and commercial vehicle fleet operators are now required to deploy monitoring and reporting systems to comply with their regulatory bodies. AVL systems help fleet operators to comply with these regulations and improve safety and visibility within their organizations. AVL systems are critical for fleet operators to avoid fines and provide improved safety and transparency through compliance with ever-changing regulations.
 

Technology advances are rapidly accelerating the overall deployment of AVL Systems. Internet of Things (IoT) Sensors in conjunction with the CAN Bus communicate on board a vehicle giving fleet operators complete visibility of the vehicle's operational status, and use of cloud base platforms provides fleet operators with the infrastructure necessary to manage their fleets from anywhere, through an internet connection.
 

Smart city projects are driving demand for AVL solutions to manage public transportation efficiently. Governments and municipalities are implementing real-time bus tracking, traffic monitoring, and urban mobility management systems. AVL enables improved route scheduling, reduced congestion, enhanced commuter experience, and better integration of transport services, positioning vehicle tracking as a critical enabler for sustainable urban transport ecosystems.

Automatic Vehicle Location Market Trends

The utilization of AI and machine learning to generate analytics from raw tracking data to enhance route optimization, maintenance scheduling, and coaching of driver behavior on AVL hardware is an area of growth for many AVL solution providers to increase efficiencies while decreasing the expense incurred while utilizing an AVL system. For instance, in September 2025, Geotab, an AVL solution provider developed an AI based analytics platform to optimize fleet performance for massive global commercial fleet operations since its launch.
 

The launch of 5G networks will promote the rapid transfer of data, decrease the amount of time to track a vehicle using AVL technology, and support the high demands for receiving and transmitting private telematic communications. By 2025, the telecommunications industry is expanding its 5G network coverage into rural logistics corridors for greater connection availability for AVL units being used on long-haul commercial roadway routes.
 

Municipalities are using AVL technology to integrate with their public transit systems and to manage their urban mobility programs to provide better scheduling, real-time passenger information, and to help alleviate traffic congestion. Few metropolitan transit agencies have embraced AVL-enabled dispatching systems to create more reliable and effective bus and shuttle operations.
 

IoT sensors connected to the CAN bus of many new vehicles are adding greater depth of diagnostic and environmental information to AVL systems to allow for predictive maintenance and protection of the fleet assets. For instance, many fleet operators employed the use of IoT based OBD and sensor systems on light commercial vehicles to facilitate the real-time monitoring and diagnosing of engine health.
